Pussy Riot faced no problems getting visa to come to Singapore embers of the Russian punk rock band Pussy Riot, Maria Alyokhinafor (centre) and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova (right) with her husband Pyotr Verzilov (left), speak to journalists after attending the inaugural Prudential Eye Awards in Singapore on Jan 18, 2014. By Bryna Singh And Yeo Sam Jo Ms Nadezhda (Nadya) Tolokonnikova and Ms Maria Alyokhina from dissident Russian music/art collective Pussy Riot say they did not have trouble coming to Singapore to attend the inaugural Prudential Eye Awards. In an exclusive interview with local media The Straits Times Life!, the pair say they faced no visa application problems. The pair and fellow activist Yekaterina Samutsevich were convicted on charges of hooliganism motivated by religious hatred after staging a "punk prayer" in Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in February 2012. The duo were recently released from jail in December last year following a Kremlin-backed amnesty bill. Their work was nominated in the digital/video category of the awards, but they did not win. They say not winning the award does not bother them the least bit. "The point of us coming here is to spread the message of the injustices going on in Russia," they explained.
